The LearnVester And The $5,900 Yorkie [Infographic]

We love infographics. And pets. (Just add them to the list under “women” and “money.”) And clearly, Visual Economics is looking to make our Monday a little furrier. Their newest infographic illustrates how much our pets cost in a lifetime. A quick preview:

Medium Dog (11 years): $6,565
Cat (15 years): $7,640
Rabbit (10 years): $6,960

And this isn’t even taking Halloween costumes into account! Check out the cost of your pet in full-colored glory over at Visual Economics. (CLICK HERE)

        What could you possibly be spending $1000 on?

          A lot of it this years was travel-related fees and also a coat for my dog and cute collars. (I know, I know)

    And what about all the crazies buying Louis Vuitton carriers for their accessory dogs? Thank goodness that sort of nonsense wasn’t included.

      Couldn’t agree more. That kind of stuff drives me nuts. People can’t pay their rent but they are buying Louis.
